COURTESY OF RENEWAL BY ANDERSEN OF GREATER MAINE
There’s something special about being part of a community — it’s more than just a place where we work and live. It’s about the connections we forge, the lives we touch, and the moments we share. This year has deepened our roots in Maine’s soil through meaningful actions that reflect our heartfelt commitment to strengthening our community bonds.
When we say community, we mean the families finding comfort at Sarah’s House of Maine, the child whose eyes light up as a wish comes true through Wayne’s Wiffle for a Wish, and the dedicated teachers who shape our future generations. We mean the veterans who’ve sacrificed so much for our country, now sharing stories over a barbecue. These aren’t just organizations or events — they’re the threads that weave our community together.
As we celebrate 10 years in Maine, we’re reminded that true community impact isn’t measured in numbers or lists of achievements. It’s measured in the warmth of a shared meal, the relief on a family’s face when they receive support, and the joy of a child’s dream coming true. It’s about recognizing that we’re all connected, and when we lift one another up, our entire community grows stronger.
Our journey of giving back has shown us that the strongest communities are built on compassion, understanding, and active participation. Whether we’re stocking pantry shelves, supporting our educators, or spending time with our veterans, each action reinforces our belief that we’re not just working in Maine — we’re part of Maine’s story.
Looking ahead, we remain committed to this vision of community support. Not because it’s expected, but because we believe that strong communities are built by people who care, who show up, and who understand that we’re all in this together. This is our home, and we’re dedicated to making it an even better place for all who live here. kindness from children and their families recounted by our aforementioned Santas, ample evidence that when it comes to playing Father Christmas, it’s the gift that keeps on giving.
